Paper Challenge!

Wait!!!
Avoid absentmindedly throwing away your school notes!
Before you toss your math excercises in the trash (gasp) or even the recycling bin, consider the following: Save each piece of paper that is blank on one side. Make a stack of reusable paper on your desk or in your drawer that can be used for future note taking, projects and even homework. 50% less paper means 50% less trees being cut down. Trees serve many purposes including:
  • Reducing erosion of our precious soil ressource
  • Allowing streams to twist and turn, creating calm sanctuaries where fish can spawn
  • Supplying us with oxygen
  • Absorbing large amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
There are hundreds of other reasons why trees are our friend...easy on the paper!

WE CHALLENGE YOU!

Until next time,

Under A Tree
